If your face is in need of a day off (aka it needs a little rest and a lot of pampering) this post is for you. We’ve rounded up eleven of our favorite homemade face masks that are full of nourishing, organic ingredients.

MethodMash one banana thoroughly and mix with 2 teaspoons of plain full-fat yogurt and 1 teaspoon of honey (you might have to microwave the honey a few seconds so that it will blend). Mix well, apply to the face and let dry completely before rinsing off.

MethodHalve an avocado and chill the half you will use. Cover the surface area with plastic wrap to prevent browning if you prefer. When nice and chilled, mash and mix with 2 teaspoons of honey. Apply to the face and relax for at least 30 minutes.

MethodGrind 1/3 cup of oatmeal in a food processor until it has a powdery consistency. Add 1 teaspoon honey and 2 teaspoon of full-fat organic milk, stirring until the mixture is thick (if it’s too thick, add a bit more milk). Let sit for 10 minutes and then apply to the face for about half an hour.

MethodSimply blend all the above ingredients together until creamy. With clean hands, apply the mask to your face and any other part of your body that you so desire (hands and feet can greatly benefit). Gently massage your mask into your skin, leaving it on for 15-20 minutes, and then rinse it off with warm water.

MethodCombine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth. The mask should have a thick consistency, but add enough water to give it a whip cream-like texture. Scoop the mixture into a small container. Cleanse your face before applying the mask. Dab the mask on your face using your fingers in a smooth layer, avoiding your eyes and mouth. (If a little gets in your mouth, that’s okay. It’s yummy!) Relax, sip some herbal tea and let the mask sit for 15-20 minutes. The mask will begin to harden, like most facial masks, but don’t worry. It’s normal. Gently rinse off the mask after about 15-20 minutes and enjoy your soft, moisturized skin! The leftover facial mask mixture will keep in the refrigerator for several days.

10. Tomato mask

For those who battle skin blemishes and clogged pores, you can enjoy the benefits of a tomato-based facial with none of the fuss simply by rubbing a fresh tomato half all over your skin, allowing the juice to remain for 15 minutes before rinsing it off. If, on the other hand, you enjoy puttering about in the kitchen, this creamy, hydrating and pleasantly energizing mask is for you.

Ingredients1/4 of an avocado 1 tablespoon of honey 1 teaspoon of lemon juice 1/4 of a small zucchini

MethodPuree 1/4 of an avocado along with 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (the latter of which will prevent the avocado from oxidizing while also helping to tone your skin). Then, finely grate 1/4 of a small zucchini into the mask mixture, incorporating it with a spoon. You know what to do now – just slather it on and enjoy!
